How it works

Explode is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is School Damage (effect type 2). Its base value is 1402.6.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Knockdown.
  3. Effect 3 is Instakill (effect type 1).

What it does

Explode is a Fire spell with an instant cast and a range of 5 yards. When cast it deals Fire damage (base value 1402.6) and kills the target outright. It also casts Knockdown.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
